So since the beginning of the break, I been taking accutane. If you don't know what accutane is, in a nutshell, it is the nuclear bomb of medication for acne. It supposed to eliminate all acne from one skin. & It is really a miracle medicine. Not surprisingly I been dealing with acne for years (does this sound like a proactive commercial), since pretty much every males in my family had them. I was pretty much on antibodies for years now & the result was fantastic. However there is this kind of acne (nodular) that doesn't go away. It comes up once in awhile but when it does I just want to put a sac on my head, and finally being sick of dealing with it I decide to take accutane, something I been trying to avoid for awhile now.
Now that I am on accutane I am having second thought about all this. I realized the medication make your skin worst before it get better. But it is worth it? 1. I am breaking out like no other. I don't even remember the last time I break out this much. 2. My skin is so dry, everywhere. Constant lotion. ekkk. 3. My lips is cracked and dried, which mean constant chapstick. 4. occasionally I have headache. 5. my body and joint, especially, aches like I have arthritis. In general I am a mess right now. =(
Ugh... the price one pay to look beautiful. But got to stay positive. It will get better. stay strong...

I've never taken the stuff myself but my bf at the time took it for awhile and he had dry skin..like u said EVERYWHERE (if u know what i mean). It works for some people but its highly toxic. Good that you're keeping positive attitude about it. I'm sure you've googled it but keep an eye on depression. Btw, you're so adorable I dont think you need to change anything or be so vain :) Happy New Year Minh -- 7sog fan :)
Don't worry, I went through it too. Months of hell, but you forget about it. The reward is worth it. Good luck!
After about the first month your skin gets clear, but then the last few months get tedious. Once you are done, you are pretty much back to normal, and you'll forget you ever had acne. I was scared and unsure at first, but it ended up being a great decision.
